[Thank you very much!]
Toph replied: [Hey, no need to be so polite between brothers! Wishing you a wonderful night~]
If Zuko wasn't in the office, he would definitely have taken Toph to the courtyard for some sparring.

Two days later, when Lina went downstairs to buy coffee, she suddenly spotted a familiar figure.
"Lina, long time no see."
Lina was taken aback. Gia didn't look too good, no longer as vibrant as before in her attire and style. She seemed much more worn out.
However, one thing remained unchanged—the scheming glint in the corner of her eyes.
Lina smiled faintly and said, "It hasn't been that long. It's only been a week since you were fired."
"But I've had a terrible week," Gia said, lowering her gaze. Her pale expression made her look pitiful.
Yet Lina was no longer moved by such an appearance.
"Gia, I wasn't trying to make things difficult for you," Lina said, looking at her coldly. "Those who do wrong are bound to face the consequences. I hope you understand this principle."
"I haven't done anything wrong," Gia argued unreasonably. "I was only thinking of myself... Is that also wrong?"
"It's not wrong to think of yourself, but it shouldn't come at the expense of hurting others."
